The Legendary Chairman Novel - Chapter 443
443 Very, Very Lucky Bell Proof
The Costa Rican’s performance was beyond everyone’s expectations and they managed to level the score.
During this period of time, the Costa Rican offensive also shone in front of everyone’s eyes. Before the goal, they had besieged Germany for five minutes in a row, repeatedly threatening the German team’s goal.
This made the fans think that this was the home ground of their Costa Rican counterpart.
The Costa Rican was quick to play and after conceding the goal they took revenge and kicked more freely. Without the psychological pressure, they did a very good job, making people’s eyes shine.
Zhong Cheng, who was standing in the spectator stands, nodded his head repeatedly. This match was indeed a good one.
He was surprised by the Costa Rican performance.
The Costa Rican equaliser was very excited, very excited. But they didn’t get excited for long because their goal was broken by the Germans.
Germany attacked on the right in the 17th minute of the game.
German genius Schneider suddenly turned around from the right sideline and suddenly accelerated to the bottom, knocking back at the front point near the baseline. It was a bit like an inverted triangle, but the football did not pass to the middle or the back point, directly sweeping towards the front point.
Schweinsteiger stabbed back, wading past Costa Rican defenders and shooting from his right foot 10 meters from the goal on the right side of the box.
However, it seemed that it was because his speed was too fast and he rushed too fiercely. He couldn’t twist his body, and his control wasn’t very good. His explosive kick was a little off, and it directly turned into a sweeping pass.
The football quickly rolled towards the middle, crossing the goalkeeper’s fall and swooping on the ground, directly rolling towards the middle.
German striker Klose slammed into the back post, shooting with his left foot four meters in front of the goal, sending the ball into Costa Rica’s goal, 2-1!
Germany beat Scotland 2-1 in 1998, the first time in World Cup history that they scored three goals in such a short amount of time and equaled the World Cup opening goal record since 1966 (Brazil beat Scotland 2-1 in 1998).
Klose also scored in two World Cups in a row.
Zhong Cheng’s gaze was fixed on Klose. Klose was a very good striker and Zhong Cheng had taken a fancy to him. However, Zhong Cheng knows that their Leeds United will definitely not be able to bring in the future legendary striker because this summer, Bayern Munich seem to be chasing Klose like crazy.
Helplessly, such a super striker seemed to be out of luck with Leeds United.
After that, Germany controlled the pace of the game, but Costa Rica’s counterattack was also very strong. Both teams had a chance, but neither of them broke through.
At the end of the half-time game, the hosts Germany led Costa Rica 2-1 at home.
The result was unexpected, and the Costa Ricans surprised them.
While the two sides were resting, Zhong Cheng went to the bathroom, but there was no dog-blood encounter. Then, he returned to the grandstand and continued to watch the second half of the match between the two sides.
At the beginning of the second half of the match, Germany still took the initiative on the pitch, performing very well and shockingly. The Costa Rican team seemed to have lost the spirit of the first half and fell silent again.
The first 61 minutes of the game, Germany’s big midfielder Borowski passed directly from the left, sending the football to Ram’s feet. Borowski was originally a substitute, but because of Ballack’s injury, he replaced Ballack in the starting line-up today.
He did well today and passed the ball with great accuracy.
Ram picked up the ball with his left foot and flew into the Costa Rican box. The Costa Rican defenders jumped high in the front and headed the ball out.
However, he had overestimated his jump. The height of his jump was not high enough. It was just his scalp rubbing against the football. Immediately, the ball flew to the center of the forbidden area. Klose jumped to the top eight meters in front of the goal and shot towards the Costa Rican goal like a cannonball.
Costa Rican goalkeeper Boras performed well and miraculously sealed the football.
However, the ball did not pounce and landed directly in front of Klose. Klose’s second reaction was very quick. Immediately, he stretched out his right foot and stabbed the football into Costa Rica’s goal, giving Germany a 3-1 lead! It was Klose’s 26th goal in 56 international games.
Klose showed his identity as a super killer.
Seeing this, Zhong Cheng also started to bulge. Klose’s performance was truly too formidable.
The Costa Ricans knew that Germany were strong and that this was the home ground of the Germans, so there was almost no chance of victory in this match. However, the Costa Ricans still did not give up. They continued to attack, attacking crazily.
The heavens did not disappoint, the Costa Ricans succeeded.
In the 72nd minute of the game, Costa Rica played a small part in the match. Centro’s right foot passed directly through the gap. Van Joppe rushed into the restricted area before Friedrich returned the tackle. He bounced off the back of his right foot eight meters in front of the goal and sent the football into Germany’s goal. Costa Rica scored another goal and changed the score to 2-3.
Van Joppe scored twice in this match.
Two players scored two goals in the opening match of the World Cup at the same time, and two different teams. This is recorded in the history of the opening match of the World Cup.
After returning a goal, the Costa Rican attacked like crazy, trying to level the score. Their confidence and morale had risen, while Germany’s team was in a bit of a mess. Costa Rica has had several good opportunities, but has not succeeded.
Wan Jopu almost scored a hat-trick, but his luck was a bit lacking.
In the 88th minute of the game, Schweinsteiger’s left free-kick struck horizontally. German heavy artillery player Frings drew an arc from the back of his right foot 27 meters in front of the goalkeeper and hung it in the upper right corner, 4-2!
Germany instantly put an end to the suspense of the match.
What Zhong Cheng valued was Frings’ heavy kick on the goal. Frings was indeed a super heavy gunner in German football. He also had this kind of immortal ball in the Bundesliga. It was a shocking feat.
Most importantly, Frings’ defense was very tough, and he also had a certain amount of organization ability. He was a very good waist, but now, he was just a little younger and a little older.
Furthermore, Zhong Cheng knew that it was impossible for their Leeds United to bring in the German midfielder.
The match evoked memories of the 2006 World Cup in Zhong Cheng’s mind. It seemed that the match had not changed much, and his butterfly had not yet affected the opening match. But Zhong Cheng knew very well that his butterfly had already affected the World Cup.
Because some of the players from their Leeds United team have entered their respective national teams ahead of time, these people will affect the progress of the World Cup.
This was also why Zhong Cheng came to watch the World Cup. He wanted to see just how much influence his butterfly had on world football.
However, it seems to be fine now, at least this match has not been affected.
Seeing this, Zhong Cheng felt a little relieved. Then, he got up and left the Allianz Stadium with Julia Olivera and the other beauties to rest.
Of course, he went back to rest, not to do anything else?
Tomorrow night, Zhong Cheng will continue to watch the World Cup because tomorrow night, England’s game is coming. Zhong Cheng paid attention to the England team because Zhong Zheng was transferred to the England team on a temporary basis.
The England manager is still Sven-Goran Eriksson, who will bid farewell to England at the end of the World Cup and be taken over by Steve McClaren, who has left Middlesbrough.
This matter has been settled, do not dare Eriksson lead the team performance?
This year’s England goalkeepers are Paul Robinson, James and Scott Carson. Yes, these are the three goalkeepers Sven-Goran Eriksson has recruited.
Scott Carson is a former Leeds United goalkeeper who was sent to Liverpool by Zhong Cheng. At Liverpool, Scott Carson is competing with Pepe Reina for the first-team goalkeeper position.
But now, Scott Carson has failed.
However, Eriksson still managed to recruit Scott Carson into the England squad because the England squad does have some good goalkeepers. Scott Carson is very good, very young and deserves to be groomed.
But before the World Cup, Scott Carson suffered a serious injury in a warm-up match and had to bid farewell to the tournament.
Then Sven-Goran Eriksson joined Leeds United’s main goalkeeper Zhong Zheng from the back-up list.
Zhong Zheng’s performance this season is very outstanding, is obvious to all. Eriksson has long been called upon to add Zhong Zheng to the England squad, and he is much stronger than Scott Carson.
When he was at Leeds United, Scott Carson was robbed of his place by Zhong Zheng before leaving Leeds United to join Liverpool.
Moreover, there are many wealthy clubs in England who have taken a fancy to Zhong Zheng. For example, Manchester United, Arsenal and other teams, they are very optimistic about Zhong Zheng, is to introduce the goalkeeper new star.
Under these circumstances, Eriksson added Zhong Zheng to the substitute list. Sven-Goran Eriksson didn’t expect that he would one day use this substitute list.
In the end, Scott Carson did not make it to Germany. He stayed in England to recover from his injuries.
Zhong Zheng flew to Germany happily and caught the last bus of the World Cup in Germany. Although he is England’s number three goalkeeper, he has little chance of playing. But. To be able to participate in the World Cup as a national team player was an incredible thing for Zhong Zheng.
Now that Zhong Zheng was still young, this time he went to accumulate experience and pave the way for his future national team.
Although Zhong Cheng also knew that Zhong Zheng had almost no chance to play. However, he still had to go to the scene to watch the match and support Zhong Zheng. After all, this was his younger brother’s first time on the England team, and it was worth remembering that he was the first to represent England in the World Cup.
On the day of the match, Isabella George, Zhong Yan and Zhong Yao would come to support Zhong Zheng. This is a memorable day for Zhong Zheng, although no one knows if Zhong Zheng has entered the list …
Zhong Cheng, Julia Oliveira, and the others went back to the hotel and prepared to rest. However, what surprised Zhong Cheng was that he had actually met someone in the hotel by chance like a dog’s blood.
